2009

I started the year off with 2 big goals: 1. lose weight (isn't that everyone's resolution?), and 2. get stronger in my walk with the Lord (Proverbs 31...thats the picture of the woman that I want to be. Those are some BIG shoes to fill)

How am I doing?#1. Well almost 2 months in, I can honestly say that I am no more lighter than I was in 2008. I'm still working on motivation (hey, whatever makes me feel better, right?).

And #2. I'm doing ok but I feel like I have gotten myself into a "spiritual rut". (if that makes any sense) I do the same things day-to-day (quiet time/prayer) and I want to add something new to the mix. I was reading Beth Moore's blog the other day (I LOVE Beth Moore). She gave her "siestas" a goal to memorize a new scripture on the 1st and the 15th of every month. Well, I'm going to do it. I used to memorize scripture all the time in elementary and high school for some reason I have stopped doing this. I will be posting the verses that I am learning on here. Anyone want to join too?

I met my husband 8 years ago and have been happily married for 5 years. We are an excellent example that blind dates work! We have 2 little boys that are the loves of our lives.
Things that make me tick: Jesus, date nights with my husband, Jackson and Hudson's smiles, Memphis basketball, running, People magazine, baseball games, Food Network, snow days, summer cookouts, sand between my toes, BUNCO nights, cherry coke zero, and Huey's burgers!
